HELENA, ARK, June l.-Mr. Brundiee.
prosecuting attorney for this district, was
questioned yesterday concerning the steps
he had taken and contemplated taking in
the apprehension OF "Bill" Kisssne, Mr..
Brundige said he had searched diligently
for the whereabouts OF the witnesss, and
had learned that most Of the material
ones were dead. As for the criminal
branch OF his case, kissane might rest easy
on that score.
Mr.. Brundige did not think ANYTHING
could be done on the bond which was
given to secure his appearance at the Phil
lips County Circuit Court, as time had
outlswed the obligation OF the bond,
General Dorr is still very active and
persistent in his endeavor to have Kis-
sane suffer the penalties OF his misdeeds,
Mr.. Brundige has received a number OF
letters from him, one as late as last week,
wherein he made inquiries as to steps he
intended TO pursue in the matter. For aix
months at least there will be no eteps OF
any kind taken against Kissane from this
court -

ceived to-day by Mr.. Parsons, Of the
Chemical Bank, confirmed the report that
William Kissans, the iorger, who has been
living in California under the assumed
name Of w. K. Rogers, has been served
with papers in civil suit begun by the
bank to recover the balance Of the forged
checks Of thirty odd years ago. The dis.
patch was from General Darr, Kissane'e
opponent Tor many years, and who found
him out, and read: .s515 n : I
"suit has been begun; papers eeryed {;
prospect OF recovery good"
General Darr has been appointed the
banks agent in the case and will press II
with vigor. The amount Is $4,000, By
those who have become interested in Kis.
sane's afiairs 1t was asserted that the claim
Is outlawed, and that the bank would only
have its trouble for nothing. Clerk
Sparks, OF the General Sessions Court,
who is thoroughly posted in the matter,
said that such was the case and that the
only persons having a claim on Kissane
were the sureties on bis bond in the
Martha Washington affair, in which he
forfeited the bail. As the indictments In
the matter are still pending they could
bring suit for the amount forfeited. The
officers Of the Chemical Bank are conf.
dent, however, they will succeed, because
klssaue concealed his name. The claim
against him, according to the laws Of Cal.
ifornia, has not been outlawed,

weather Of to-day seriously interfere,
with the Sherman reception. Elaborate
preparations had been made In the way 0
platform and seats In front Of tho Stat,
House. During a lull Of the storm abou
ono thousand persons occupied their seats
but were driven to tho Representative
hall by the rain at o'clock. At thll
point the committee determined to remove
the demonstration to the shelter o.
the State House, and thu crowt
aurged and pressed for entrance to the As
sembly Chamber. In short time two
thousand people crowded into the CALLER
les, capable ordinarily Of holding only
eight hundred, and the more favored, "a
the number Of fifteen hundred, were ad'
mitted to the floor Of the House. Senator
Sherman was introduced by Gov. Ogleeby
and spoke Us follows:
What you desire OF me, I presume, Is Q
statement Of my view Of the principtes
and tendencies OF the two great political
parties Of the country, for they must be
tested by these and not by independent
opinions or partial differences which al
ways exist. These principles are the
natural oatgrowsh OF the contest over the
institution Of slavery that has continued
since the commencement Of the Govern.
ment. but 1t was not until the repeal oil
the Missouri Compromise, and the great
debate that occurred in Illinois between
Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Doug.
las, that the philosophy OF slavery was
fully presented before popular audiences.
II was this debate that lead to the nomi.
nation OF Mr.. Lincoln and made him the
first Republican President Of the United
States.
What language can'express the cruel
and barbarous atrocity Of the controlling
elements Of the South in their treatment Of
Republicans, both white and black, and
especially OF tho freedmen who had been
invested by constitutional amendments,
with liberty and political rights. In this
way and by these means, the Democratic
party in the South now hold in solid and
unbroken array every Southern State with
increased political power conferred by the
freedom Of the slaves. This Is the basis oil
their power. Without the terror aud os.
tracism l have described, several Of these
States, governed by their interests and
convictions, enlightened by free discussion,
emsncipated in fact as we'll as in name,
would be as thoroughly Republican as
illinois. 1t is said that this is raising the
bloody shirt; renewing the snimosities oi
the war. l deny 1t. The charge is an un.
just reproach Of Confederate soldiers.
What spoke OF is not the work Of sol.
diers, but Of towards and criminals, not in
wGr but in peace. pity the man who
cannot distinguish between the duty o.
soldiers and self.imposed crueltiea and
barbarous methods born Of slavery.
What has been the course OF the Demo.
cratic party of the North while these
events have been going on At fret there
was doubt and denial, but now no honesi
man can doubt, unless wilfully ignorant,
No Democrat with spark Of manhood
who hates these methods can shield him
self behind doubt or disbelief.

In the collection of the Goethe Carlyle
correspondence jrst published there is
one episode of ludicrous interest not al
together without its pathetic side. It il
that in which Mrs. Carlyle, in the year
1929. sent Goethe lock Of hair-s.con4
which l am to say" writes Thomas,
..that except to her husband she never
did the like to any man" In exchange
she begged for lock Of Goethe ) hair,
and this ..for heart that honestly
loves yOu.n II, too,' wrote the hus.
band. ..hope thatyou will do SO much. y
Goethe. who was then in his 8lst year,
found himself in painful predicament,
which he thus explains:
1.-The incompatible lock of hair
alarmed me. The contrast was
too stricking. for did not need tc
touch my skull to become aware thai
only stubble was left there. nor was il
necessary for me TO 60 to the looking.
glass to learn that long fight of time
had given it . discolored look. The
impossib;lity Of making the desired
return smote my heart. and forced
thoughts upon me which one usually
prefers to Danish. In the end. how.
ever. nothing remained for me but te
content myself with the reflection that
such a gift was to be most thankfully
received without hope Of any adequate
requital."
